Re: Obesity Walk- Las Vegas Nevada

I was at this back in '07 and had a blast. Are there any more of these soon? In Vegas? I love going to these but all those Hotels in Las Vegas really tempt me away from the cause sometimes if you guys know what i mean

Re: Obesity Walk- Las Vegas Nevada

Hello Guys, It sounds like a great idea. Does anyone know if there is such an event in the UK. If not would anyone like to help me organise one.

Please let me know.

Re: Obesity Walk- Las Vegas Nevada

Please, don't shoot me...but as an obese person (and we all know what that entails as far as image out there in the "real" world), I would be mortified to walk in something actually identified as "OBESITY WALK". I'm always embarrassed and self-conscious walking around my neighborhood (I can FEEL the looks). If it was called something like "Onward to Health Walk" or "We're On Our Way Walk" or something like that, I'd run to register. Am I overly sensitive, or does anybody out there know what I'm talking about?

Well it was posted 2.5ish years ago, lookng at the site the walk is no longer around, so perhaps it got renamed but they never put it on their old website.

Re: Obesity Walk- Las Vegas Nevada

I did notice the date, and I also hope that they hold some fun runs or walks still, perhaps with a different name. By the way, my son travels occasionally to the Netherlands and really likes it there...he has some amazing photos.

Guess it still has the same name, different site though: The Walk from Obesity.

Since the only I have no idea if the middle of Illinois is close to Chicago, I won't say that it's close! But on the site it shows that they are hosting one there.


Your son enjoys our tulips and windmills I bet? Or the other interesting thing called Amsterdam and what it has to offer ? Just joking! Just used to all the comments about how awesome Amsterdam is, whilst I've only been there once myself .

How about the "Yes-I'm-Overweight-So-Bite-Me" Walk.

Re: Obesity Walk- Las Vegas Nevada

Hmmm, will you be wearing a banner w/that on there? OR maybe a cape as you go screaming down the street?
